Greetings,
Anyone know why the Archmage didn't make the cut to Pathfinder? I can't imagine it was so world or system specific (like say the Red Wizard) that copyright infringement was an issue. I also thought it was a pretty cool class with some neat abilities that I would have loved to see what the guys at Paizo could have done with it.
Was it a choice to do away with 5 level PRC's perhaps?
Anything anyone knows would be awesome.
Thanks,
QGJ

Right so this again (twice this week). I would suggest using the search function of the boards here.
Try the following:
"No Archmage?"
"Missing Prestige Classes?"
"Why no dwarven defender?"
"Where is the Archmage?"
Or any variant there of, you'll find plenty of threads seeing as this comes up at least once every month or two.

NP, it's just funny to me that you being in the Top 8 of RPG ss 2010 you missed those threads. ;D Anyways congrats and have fun reading.
Abraham,
Clearly what talent I have is creative at the expense of all things technical ;)Thanks for the tip. I'll be more diligent on my searches in the future.
Regards,

Ahhhh...but I never SPECIFIED the type of Curse.
Maybe it's a good thing.
Well, if it's classified as a "curse", it will very rarely be a good thing. You don't exactly expect to be cursed with perfect health and a loving family. It's mostly the dying cattle, withering corn and shrivelling man-hood deal.
Maybe it goes the way of "you were a bad person and now must be punished". "You're a very, very bad boy. I curse you." "Oh, mama!"

On a side note ... an "Archmage" trapped in a jar might make for a hell of a quest item to find! One guy in all of world that knows how to do it ... and you have him trapped in a bottle.
Can you get him to teach you?
Will he destroy you when released?
Will he destroy the town? the kingdom? the world?
Who put him in there?
Will he live if released? Has time passed for him at all?
Lot of fun stuff to play with just from the title of this particular thread on the topic, so, although frequently discussed, oddly enough I find it a solid contribution!
:-D
